Might consider it.  Does it autologin a regular user?
Kdm has also been suggested.  I am amazed that I have
three choices and do not know which one to get

1 gdm
2 kdm
3 xdm

Which one is working the best?  That should be the one
that I should get and forget about login problems or
resort to start in level 3 and login and type startx
and move on.

Regards,

Antonio
